Applicability of boundary conditions for analytical modelling of advection-dispersion transport in low-permeability clay column tests

Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2017
The column tests on advection-dispersion are commonly used to measure the contaminant transport parameters in soils. The applicability of boundary conditions for analytical modelling of the column tests is under debate. The low-permeability kaolin column

Heterogeneity in the Global Practice of Central Nervous System Staging in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) involvement in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is assessed by cell counting and cytomorphology from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and is used for treatment stratification worldwide. The ratio of “CNS2” patients in clinical trials ranges from 3% to 40%, with unclear prognostic significance ...

Similarity analysis and verification of slurry fracturing on shield tunnel face using centrifuge modeling

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
The geotechnical centrifuge test can restore the real stress field in the small-scale model, and provides an effective research method for investigating the slurry fracturing phenomenon of the shield tunnel face. There are several factors involved in the

Seismic site response of layered saturated sand: comparison of finite element simulations with centrifuge test results

International Journal of Geo-Engineering, 2021
A numerical model based on the finite element framework was developed to predict the seismic response of saturated sand under free-field conditions. The finite element framework used a non-linear coupled hypoplastic model based on the u-p formulation to ...

Increased Risk of Sarcomas in Children With Congenital Anomalies: Findings From the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Registry Linkage Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that contribute disproportionately to cancer mortality in children. Although congenital anomalies are among the strongest known risk factors for childhood cancer, the risk of specific sarcoma subtypes among affected individuals has not yet been thoroughly evaluated. Procedure We

Aseismic measures for asphalt concrete core dams by dynamic centrifuge modelling tests

Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2020
Dynamic centrifuge modelling tests are carried out to study the effectiveness of aseismic measures for a sand-gravel dam with asphalt concrete core wall under design earthquake. 2 models are used to simulate 2 dams without and with aseismic measures. The

Therapeutic Apheresis for Intravenous Methylprednisolone‐Refractory Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder: Clinical and Radiological Outcomes in a Single‐Center Case Series

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. High‐dose intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) is the standard first‐line therapy for acute attacks, although some patients remain refractory.

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Centrifuge modelling of monotonic and cyclic lateral responses of monopiles in quartz and carbonate sands [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
This study evaluates the soil-structure interaction of monopiles subjected to monotonic and cyclic lateral loading by means of centrifuge modelling. The monopile were installed in two types of dense sands: quarts and carbonate. To evaluate the static and

Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...
